[Video] Rand Paul vs. John Kerry at Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearing on Syria 9/3/13

[JCDenton0451]

I want Rand to go after Hagel lol.

I'm confident that privately Hagel is lobbying Obama to exercise restraint. But ultimately it's not his decision to make.

Nonesense.

 

[JCDenton0451]

Nonesense.

Which part?

 

[Warlord]

Which part?

Hagel is fully on board with it. You'll see later

 

[Cleaner44]

U.S. Senate Committee on Foreign Relations... our government sure has a hell of a way relating to foreigners... bomb them or give them billions of borrowed dollars to do our bidding.

You're simply misinformed. If Hagel is some kind of a warmonger why did Bill Kristol and Sheldon Adelson launch a million dollar campaign (with TV ads in the DC area and New York Times) to prevent him from being confirmed?

Because they're foolish.

 

[JCDenton0451]

Because they're foolish.

I bet they know more than you do. The amount of opposition Hagel faced was unprecedented for a Defence nominee. Clearly, lots of Zionists saw him as a threat. Even the Anti-Defamation League was worried. lol

Like Rand Paul said then, it was a waste of time praising Hagel. And as we all found out, that filibuster was about Brennan.

ya

similar to the way senator obama and senator biden were secretly lobbying themselves from ghost of 2007, right? it's not like politicians having a change of heart has ever been observed in human history. you're like that abused woman who takes it in the ass but believes her man is doing it for her own good.. stockholm syndrome much? instead of owning up to it, it's easier to insist on something no one can prove, i suppose, just always assume your abuser is constantly and secretly looking out for your own good. i can't think of a human trait more pathetic. and do you understand logic 101? the burden of proof is not on us to prove a negative. the job is on you to prove hagel is conforming secretly to your ass-taking standards in exchange for something by which you could comfortably say he is 'doing it for your own good'.

I'm telling you, people who question Hagel on this board are mostly Evangelicals who dislike him because he isn't pro-Israel enough.

Hagel does what he's told. Rand was right about him. Just admit it

 

[jtstellar]

the battle for the soul of us foreign policy now apparently rests on hagel, whether he can secretly 'lobby' obama to change his heart.. because rand has become useless long ago apparently according to some.

it's like rand critics are comprised of prom queens

 

[JCDenton0451]

I'm telling you, people who question Hagel on this board are mostly Evangelicals who dislike him because he isn't pro-Israel enough.

These same people question Mark Sanford because he isn't "moral" enough.

Hagel does what he's told. Rand was right about him. Just admit it

You mean Ron?? Ron was right about Hagel. But Rand repeated neoconservative canards about Hagel accepting donations from Muslim terrorists and Iran. He was very wrong. This is what happens when you try to grow your tent by pandering to Jennifer Rubin. lol

Personally, I'm willing to look past that episode, but I won't forget and I won't let you forget.

Obama has killed something like 300 kids with drones
